bringing back the grail

I was reminded yesterday of something I read years ago in a collection of joseph campbell's writings.
It is after we find the treasure that the real journey begins. We must bring back the grail and find the ways to integrate it into daily life.
Awakening to the fact of my enlightenment is only the beginning of the bodhisattva path. I must return from the mountaintop and live in my world, with my people, sharing my treasure in the way that will enable them to realize their own awakening.
I don't want to just bliss out and hoard the treasure for myself.
